2. any policies, guidelines, manuals and/or instructions on department use of drones, including on the legal process required (such as a warrant or court order), if any, before operating a drone;
3. any departmental records concerning this department’s use of drones now or plans to use drones in the future including:

Hello,
The Clackamas County Sheriff's Office was listed by the Federal Aviation Administration as an agency that had applied for a Certificate of Authorization to fly drones. Here is a link to the list: http://markey.house.gov/sites/markey.house.gov/files/documents/FAA%20drones%20response.pdf
Could you please check again to see whether CCSO has any responsive records related to UAVs/drones? This would include all materials submitted to the FAA in support of its application for a COA, as well as documents related to the purchase of UAV equipment.
Thank you,
Shawn Musgrave
